| How rude... I collect sets like these and would be interested in seeing what
this seller has; I might wish to purchase one, or more, and that would be profitable
for everyone, I would think?
So, since this site is not willing to assist a seller list their items, what
methods are available for us collectors to patronize sellers without violating
any of the site's "rules"?
Thanks for your consideration...

The part count on the box is 100 pieces, so LEGO considered more than two of
these rubber bands as regular parts. Unfortunately, I can't prove how many.

2 pieces that only came in red or rust in two sets, I bought this feeling pretty
sure that they'd be the same. Not too many were made. So if we're going
to recognize the color rust, I think all of these parts are rust and not red.
They might have looked the same new, but they don't look the same now.
-=-=-
A while back I noticed I had two colors of red in 11214. I hadn't documented
it and when I got some more I didn't document it again because I just thought
it was a variation. But the darker ones are a perfect match for these rust parts.
So that's a piece that came in both colors. To repeat, I have taken rust
11214 from more than one set, but I have no way of saying which sets.

Here's the problem with the "rust" parts. Were they really meant to be what
we consider the color rust? Or are they red parts that have changed color over
time?
For example, if we see the "brittle blue" parts these days, we know they look
absolutely different to the blue parts we know and love. However, these parts
probably looked just like blue parts when they were originally released in sets.
Also, the two parts that you have here are the same two parts that have been
documented as being found in a color very close to what looks like bright light
orange but were actually supposed to be yellow. I have a feeling that these color
changes may have to do with the type of plastic used for these two parts.
It would be nice for some of the resident color experts to chime in on this one.
Cheers,
Randy

Torso should be black not variable color.

Torsos are always variable color in torso assemblies. This request will not be

Okay, I was writing to ask why but just found out why it is that way clicking
some torsos 
Thanks!

Awesome, Jonas! I could not figure out why that part was included!
Besides Jonathan's set, I had found many images of other sealed sets showing
the gears included in the set, so I knew they had to be used for something. Nice
detective work!

Comments from Submitter:
The parts list (via Brickset.com) from LEGO replacement parts website says one 8 tooth gear should be regular.
But why?
Because it is used in an alternate model from the CD-ROM.

| Technically speaking the inventory is incorrect because of the different LEGO
logos on the back of the torso. 
* | | 973pb0678 Torso Pirate Captain Jacket Open with Yellow Trim over Green Shirt with Neck Ruffle, Brown Strap, Belt with Buckle, LEGO Logo on Back Pattern
Parts: Minifigure, Torso |
But considering the number of items for sale and recently sold items it's
probably not a big problem...

I think it would be great if you could generate a code for your store so people
could enter it for a discount.
This would be good for marketing on social media rather than having to issue
individual coupons.
Is there any chance this could be developed?
Thanks,

You don't use Instant Checkout, so why not just put your code on facebook
or wherever, saying add it to the order comments. Then you can manually adjust.

Sounds like a grocery store where you need a keycard for some deals and then
an app for even more. To me, it is unnecessary when you have the power to reduce
prices or run general sales for all customers and advertise as such. I'd
be quite upset if I bought from a store, and then realized that I could have
saved 10% if I saw some advertisement from somewhere else. This is just like
when any of us buy something and then learn it was cheaper if we entered some
code at checkout.
PS: Any Grocery Store Managers or Corporate see this... STOP IT. I'm already
in your store. Just give me the best price you are advertising without having
to go through all the extra steps!
PSS: I understand fully how advertising works. I just think it is getting ridiculous.
Keep it simple for all of us customers, no matter what industry we are talking
about.

The goal isn’t to have every buyer pay the “best” price. This “best” price is
funded by the ones who don’t pay it.
IOW, you say “when you have the power to reduce prices or run general sales for
all customers,” but that’s the thing: they can’t afford to reduce the prices
for everyone, or it would be a tiny, unmemorable reduction. So they do the next
best thing: make you believe they reduce the prices often. Too bad you always
miss it.
And there’s lots of psychological reasons: feeling special, feeling the discount
is earned, remembering the prices are low even if you paid more, etc.
Also, people are different: You get upset when you realize you missed a discount
while others don’t care and just throw away coupons. And it seems to work because
they do it again and again (and they have the numbers to know if it’s efficient).
